Nice, now ditch the purolator POS FPR and get a real one(Holley, $22). It's limiting your top end due to its crappy flow capacity.

Nope. You have a GSL, it came with a stereo and EQ in the hole you have that plate on. Better make it Peanut butter.

I think you took my post in the wrong way. I wasn't trying to be a smart @$$. I was just playing with you.
I only knew this from the pic because my 1st 7 was an 83 GSL. Relax, the cookie will be on me.

I was thinking the battery hold down personally. Its one of those "billet" things for a ricer, but that actually has function, then I started thinking the braided fuel lines seeing as its not even a high pressure system...

On another note, it looks just like my 83 GSL. Only I have a one piece manifold and I dont have any air cleaners anymore (read the engine fire thread )... Oh, and I have a Holley regulator, and a Carter pump, and...

How does that A/F ratio gauge work for you? I've been looking into getting one myself. I think I asked you that already, oh well. Also, I cant tell from the pictures, what color is your interior? Im at a friends house with a messsed up monitor... I also like that steering wheel. Looks good. I also wish I had the digital clock for my car. I could only find an analog clock in the junk yard that actually worked. Come to think of it, I also need a rear wiper motor cover if anyone has one .

yea my car is your cars big brother. idsplacement wise. Its a burgandy interiolr. I hate it. The fuel lines also serve a purpose. they're not fully form thats the point. Like the Momo wheel is mostly form, but i have big legs and can't bareley get my legs under the momo, let alone the stock buss wheel. I had to drive all boldlegged..

boldlegged? Interesting. How brave are your legs when you drive?

(pst, bow-legged might be the word you were looking for )
